Those exhausts in the vids sounds like butthole.

IMO the CR's exhaust has a bit of VQ engine note to it.

The video really doesn't do justice at all. This is the best I can do. The best way I recommend is that if you have somebody with that certain set-up you hear for yourself in person.

G35 exhaust sounds unique. But got old fast. Sounds too manufactured....

NOTHING you do will sound even close to the VQ engine so don't even waste your money. well unless you swap in a VQ and get a nismo exhaust...

i think the vr6 and VQ engines have the BEST note in the market followed by subaru. s2000 probably isn't the best but when you're in vtec it sounds pretty damn good.
I agree with all this except your take on the Suburu. To me a Suburu sounds like a 4 cylinder running on 3.

You have to really hear it in person. It's really deep and growls like a true sports car. It's not obnoxious at all.

I like the Nissan exhaust sound as well, it has a nice resonance to it, like it's highly tuned. I can't see a 4 cylinder Honda ever sounding like that, though I am pretty happy with the s2k stock exhaust resonance in certain rpms.

yeah, the 350, the G, and that funny SUV thing all have very distinct tones. Sounds good
